"How come there's a male version of you here? Did you trigger some Strange Story?" Yu Liang was somewhat astonished by the presence of a male Li Huazhao, but his tone did not show much surprise, as if it was completely unsurprising that "Li Huazhao" could do something like this.
"It seems to have something to do with this stele. I just kicked it and then this happened," Huaniang responded very naturally to Yu Liang's question, as if she really had kicked the stele herself.
Yu Liang: "..."
Although he had planned to mess with Li Huazhao, the things Li Huazhao did still gave Yu Liang an urge to curse.
He had just learned from the Heart-Stealing Creature about the prominent status of the Wordless Stele in the entire village, essentially akin to the soul of the village.
Although the strength of the Root Strange Stories meant they did not need to pay too much attention to this Wordless Stele, this did not mean they could tolerate others trampling on the stele at will.
